When I was at fellow forum member Vicviper's house the night he got his brand new Wii, I couldn't stop it from veering off to the right (or maybe it was to the left) no matter what I did or how I held the thing. Maybe his room is broken?

Excite Truck is leagues better than Sonic and His Rings, but I'd still enjoy the game much more if there was an option to use a real controller. I don't like thrusting it forward, either. So the Wii does indeed break this game for me. Also I do not hold a regular controller to where the buttons face straight up. That is unnatural. When I use a real controller, it faces diagonally up between me and the ceiling, mostly pointed towards my handsome face.
